Announcing Rockin' Cabs, LLC - www.rockincabs.com

Hello everyone - I encourage you all to visit www.rockincabs.com and check out our unique Speaker Impulse package. Check out our demos, download our V30 Speaker Impulse for free and enter code RC5OFF at checkout for $5.00 off of our current Core 12 impulse pack.

We have packed a ton of value into this package and our impulses have been developed specifically for live use with 12" FRFR monitors. When you purchase our current package you get 7 different speakers plus 5 of our hybrid creations, 18 awesome sounding impulses in total. New customers will also get free updates to our core 12 pack. We are working on adding 2 more speakers and a few more hybrid impulses to it.

Come get your free V30 and try it with your modeler and FRFR monitor. We think you'll be excited with the results!

 

@Rockin' Cabs it's a real shame that we didn't get offered the same deal that you posted on the other modeler forums and TGP. I'd would definitely have purchased your full pack with free updates for $14.99.

However at $29.99 with the discount it's the same price as the latest packs from established providers such as OwnHammer or ML Audio with many more IR's.

 

Hi- Actually, my post here wasn't approved for many days and I wasn't aware it had been made public until this reply. Hang tight, we are working on adding quite a bit of content to our pack including different mic profiles. Within the next week or so our pack will be competitive with the big names in terms of content and value. In the studio now as I am typing this...

 

I've downloaded your free samples in the interim and I'll hopefully get chance to try them tonight.

 

Awesome, one thing I'd like to say is that we are dialing them in a bit more. We feel the bass resonance is a bit heavy. We are really busy working on our pack. Not only the sound but we will soon have 10 speakers and about 40 hybrid impulses done up in 2 different "profiles". 1 will be called "Raw" and the other "Sweet". In addition, we are capturing all 10 speakers with 3 different condensors, 3 different dynamics and 2 ribbons mics. I don't have a number yet but the total impulses will be well over 100. We will be selling the new expanded pack for $29.99. It will be ready soon and we will post some discount codes when it debuts. Thanks for checking us out, we appreciate it!

 

We've listened to your feedback and after more than 200 hours in development, we have produced one of the best sounding, innovative and useful impulse packs ever created. Our latest work represents the full realization of our vision of producing lively impulses, with an amp-like tone and feel but now with a completely flat frequency response. All of your model's tone controls will operate as normal from 0-10. Announcing the all-new Rockin' Cabs EPIC Pack!

EPIC Pack: We captured 10 of the industries best speakers (both British and U.S.) with 12 of the World's greatest microphones. We then built 30 of our "hybrid" dual speaker blends.

With 12 mic profiles of 40 different speaker and dual speaker blends, the possibilities are truly endless.

"Studio A" - Multi-mic mix of all 40 speaker and hydrid blends. This is a mix of 57, 87, 121 and 563 microphones with "early reflections" added to the leading mic. It is intended as a great starting point for use in typical mixing scenarios and also sounds great for live monitoring. While there is no one-size-fits-all multi-mic mix, we are confident you will find our "Studio A" mix to be very useful and also serves as a good example of what is possible with EPIC Pack if you take the time to build multi-mic impulse blends.

The EPIC Pack is also a professionally assembled and easy to use package. We employ easy to understand, compact labeling of our impulse titles so they can be read on small screens like Line 6 HX Stomp and Atomic Amplifire. All 520 impulses are equally leveled for consistent performance. Our clever folder system allows you to load by speaker type or by microphone type so you can find exactly what you need and load in seconds. You get the entire package in 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96K sample rates.

All of this for only $40.00! That's the best price you find on a professional pack of this scope and sound quality anywhere.

We think you will be completely blown away by the EPIC Pack and we are offering an affordable and easy way to give it a real-world test drive: For a limited time, we are selling a 25 impulse EPIC Sampler for only $5.00.

The sampler contains a variety of our core speakers, hybrid speaker blends and mic profiles that will give you a solid idea if purchasing the full pack is right for you. Included are 5 impulses from our Studio A multi-mic mix. Plus, with a Sample Pack purchase you get a discount code for $10.00 off the full package. So, you really have nothing to lose. Our 25 impulse sample pack is an awesome deal and sounds great all by itself. Sample pack comes delivered in 2 sample rates, 44.1 and 48K which will work with virtually any modeler.

@Rockin' Cabs can you explain this in more detail please?

 

What it means exactly is that whether you use our fattest mic profile (tube condenser) or our thinnest profile (SM57) your tone controls (more so bass) will function as you would expect within your amp model. In our previous impulses, some impulses had a particular bass resonance which didn't necessarily sound bad but it would prevent the bass control of the amp model from being used "normally". The original vision of our product was to have impulses that were "virtually installing" speakers into your monitor, rather than stuffing different cabs into your monitor. If you load up 100 impulses from the EPIC Pack into your modeler, you will have a massive palette of tones to work with but it will be a very consistent experience as you scroll through them in terms of volume and resonance.

 

I've tried a handful of this CAB IR files and they sound pretty good!

 

Add an Eminence Canabis Rex and I will buy.

 

Don't knock it 'till you try it, this pack has 480 different sounds just using a single impulse block. Add parallel blocks and the number of possibilities between mixing speaker and mic types is literally astronomical. As a player, I can say with confidence that you will not have any problem building any sound you can imagine. It really is a lot of fun and the sounds aren't like splitting hairs, they are distinctly different. You can stay on one amp model and the impulses will transform it into a completely different tone and feel as you scroll through them. It's sort of like a modeler for your modeler.

 

I've been enjoying these so far. Only thing missing for me is mic mixes but that's a failing on my part for reading the description wrong as the mixes in this pack are speaker mixes instead. And it's easy enough to make your own mixes with Cab Lab or similar anyway.

 

Hmmm. I thought my post was pretty clear, but I will elaborate for you. I already have thousands of IR files, many from the established players in the field. I don’t need 480 more of the same speakers, especially from a new entrant into the field.

If you want me to buy your IR pack and give them a listen, you need to offer something I want that the other guys don’t offer. The C-Rex is a great speaker that I prefer in several real amps/cabs but that I don’t have a good IR for and like many Eminence products, it happens to not be offered by any of the big players. If you want to get my attention and money, offer IR’s of the C-Rex, Swamp Thing, and other speakers that I don’t already have thousands of IR’s for.

 

Thank You for the feedback, Dave_5150. EPIC Pack now includes our "Studio A" multi-mic mix of all 40 speaker and hybrid combinations. This is a mix of 5 mics - 57, 87, 121 and 563, with "early reflections" added to the leading mic. It is intended as a great starting point for use in typical mixing scenarios and also sounds good for live monitoring.

Emails have been sent to current users regarding the free update. Please check your email for details or contact us with any questions. Thanks!

 

Fantastic, I'll be sure to check those out.

 

Thank you for the suggestions. I too am an Eminence speaker fan. We have tentative plans to expand our offerings and some of the speakers you mentioned will be included.

 

I had a look at your website but couldn't find anywhere to download the free V30 IR to try your product. Can you provide specifics of where I might find this to download?

 

Hi, thank you for your interest in trying our impulses. With the roll-out of our new package, we have discontinued offering free downloads. We have a 25 impulse sampler available for $5.00 which includes a $10.00 discount towards the EPIC Pack purchase.

 

@Rockin' Cabs I fIinally got time to try the latest version of these with my FRFR rather my studio monitors today and they are superb. Super consistent across the pack too in terms of speakers, hybrids and the mix IR's. Single mics such as the SM57 sound just like my old mic'ed cab live sound. You've done a fantastic job with these

 

Glad to hear it, thanks! We are releasing the final update to the EPIC Pack this weekend, so lookout for the email. 2 new profiles, Studio B and a FRFR ready profile, "FRED". We spent a lot of time developing this live profile. Usually big sounding impulses are muddy and wash out your model's character and tone stack. These address those issues, definitely check it out.
